I just spent a 10-hour A&E shift doing cannulation, venepuncture and ECGs. The joy!
Did manage to see a patient with this gash across the back of his head. I had the honour of inserting my finger into his head and gauging the depth (no it didn't quite make it to the brain) of the laceration. That was 4am mind you, and had to cut his hair and staple him up.
And I did make a mess of that job.
